Sahlsmith Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 As a new Affinity Photo iPad Pro user, I am not able to get the Inpainting Brush to highlight the area of an imported photo that I want to remove. The Clone icon gives me access to the Inpainting Brush and the context options appear at the bottom of the screen, but when I touch the area of the photo that I want to edit, nothing happens—no highlighting. I’ve used my finger as well as a stylus. I’m sure this is some newbie error, but I’m stumped. Thank you in advance for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sahlsmith Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 Well, as fate dictates, I discovered the answer after posting my plea for help. I needed to create a pixel layer and set the context for the Inpainting Brush to “Curren layer and below”. Once I’d edited the photo and merged the two layers, I finished my adjustments. The telephone poles and wires are gone and the photo is ready to present. DM1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM1 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 @Sahlsmith When you import a photo (Place) image into AF it is placed as an image. The easiest method is to open Layer studio, select the image layer, tap the Layer Option menu (little circle with 3 dots) and select Rasterize. Your layer will be converted to pixel and can be modified directly. Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).
